First model of the year painted! This guy is a BEAST of a mini sitting on an 80mm round base. Currently batch painting 35 Neolithic age cavemen to go with him for Hide, Stone, and Bone from Osprey games.

Posting so I can be called out when none of this happens in two months and I’ve done other stuff instead

Not done a lot of posting on here but I wrote about my whole year of hobby, and life a little bit, and it's been a hell of a year but oh boy did I also do a fair bit of hobby

The other Shroudfall warband finished, a sort of Flesh Horror Alchemist kind of group of guys.

After painting multiple hundreds of models, each year, for the last couple years I put to words how I approach painting for the vast majority of my projects

Finished these up this week, a warband for Shroudfall, a newer skirmish game that has a-lot going on but after one game of it seems really fun!
Love that these are all pandas and that the leader is the red panda with the giant sword.

I've not been on here in a while but this is maybe the best new game I've played all year, or longer? It's incredibly fun. I made two friends play it and we were cracking up with the hilarious things that kept happening!

Having gotten into Historical wargaming just last year, and a friend stating recently too, I put down some thoughts; all about how starter sets simply existing have made Historicals more approachable.

Put together a little How To type thing on how I kitbashed and painted my Trench Ghosts! This was a fun and quick little project, ideal really.

Was a quick paint job to finish up those trench ghosts I converted the other day from Nighthaunt and WW1 Germans - I think they came out great! Really pleased with that

Finished up my Trench Pilgrims! Except for the Anchorite which still needs to be primed and started on…but the ghost warband might distract me for a little while now

Krittok Foulblade, ready for MPO at the weekend.

Quite the journey, and here’s the end result. Overall I am quite happy, but there are lots of things I need to think about as I take my next step on my painting journey.

Hope you enjoy.

Working on some Trench Pilgrims, was going to bin off this model but decided it’d be fun to try some greenstuff sculpting since I’ve done so little of it before
Before and after the greenstuff attempt, which was much needed to make this usable
